Dear friend,Although you and I maynot have ever met, I feelv e ry honored to havethis opportunity toremind you of something

so amazing: You are God’s daughter! Now, ifyou’re unsure of that, I pray that this book willhelp you to know whom you belong to. God, yourheavenly Father, created you with a heart thatlongs to be in a relationship with Him.

Think about this for a moment: God, the One whocreated the whole universe, formed you in yourmother’s womb and called you to be His daugh-ter. How important does that make you feel? Youare the daughter of the King of kings and Lord oflords! You could be called a princess! I know itmakes me want to hold my head up so high, andat the same time bow down in humility!

One day when I was praying, the Lord remindedme that if I would make my relationship with Himthe most important one—spending time with Himin prayer, studying His Word, and worshipping

Him—then He would help me do well in all the

other things He has called me to do.

Now, take a look at this list of roles you may have

as a young woman: daughter to your heavenly

Father, daughter to your earthly parents, sister,

granddaughter, niece, cousin, friend, best friend,

student, teenager, babysitter, cheerleader,

athlete, etc. As time goes on, you will gain new

roles, such as employee, employer, aunt, girl-

friend, fiancé, wife, daughter-in-law, sister-in-law,

mother, mother-in-law, grandma, great-grandma.

Oh my! As women, we wear a lot of hats.

Just remember: You don’t have to wear all these

hats at once. Thank goodness! I’m so thankful

there are seasons in life, and the Lord prepares

and equips us to take on all of these responsibili-

ties as they come.

I am so thrilled for you to get to be a young

woman in the times we are living in. He has called

you for such a time as this. Trust your heavenly

Father. He loved you so much that He gave His

only Son, Jesus, so that if you believe in Him you

will not perish but have everlasting life. You were

Every Teen Girl’s Little Pink Book10

bought with a great price! God gave His Son foryou so you could be His daughter!

Have you ever seen the show Trading Spaces?Well, Jesus completely traded spaces with you—and not just for two days, but forever! He makesan eternal, forever, and always trade with youwhen you give your whole heart to Him. Somepeople call it The Great Exchange.

We give Him: He gives us:Our failures His new beginnings

Our weaknesses His strength

Our sadness His joy

Our problems His solutions

Our broken hearts His comfort

Our pain His healing

The impossible “All things are possible”

Our dreams His fulfillment

Our gifts and talents His grace

I pray that this book will encourage you and helpyou to see how good God is and how preciousyou are to Him. I love you and want to see yougrow more in love with God every day and bedelighted to be His daughter!

Love, Cathy

Psalm 37:4 N I V says, “Delight yourself in the Lordand he will give you the desires of your heart . ”What do you think about that? I have to tell you,this Scripture is so dear to my heart! When I wasa teenager I realized that if I would want toplease the Lord in everything, He would not onlygive me the desires of my heart but would actu-ally place His desires for me in my heart — a n dmake them come true!

How amazing is that? Because you love God asyour Father and because He loves you as Hisdaughter, your desires and His desires for youbecome one desire! Remember: He has theabsolute best plan for you.

You may be thinking, How will I know it’s God’sdesires I am following? His Word and His will for

de-light

you will agree. If you are delighting in the Lord,you’ll be reading His Word. And if you’re readingHis Word, He will reveal His will to you.

Even though I haven’t met you, I know you wantto grow in your relationship with the Lord. Whyelse would you be reading this book? (By the way,I’d like to thank you. I’m very honored that youare sharing this time with me.)

As you grow in your relationship with God, youmay wonder how else you can “delight yourself inthe Lord.”

Well, how do you take delight in your friends? Yo uspend time with them. You talk with them, and youlisten to them. Spending time with your heavenlyFather is the best way to delight in Him, too. Herea re a few ways you can spend time with Him:

Read the Bible. The Bible contains loveletters to you from God.

Talk to Him. Listen to what God has to say toyou, and tell Him how much you love Him.

Spend time with others who know Him. Goto church and Bible studies, read books likethis, and listen to teaching CDs.


Worship. Take time to tell God how much

you appreciate all the good things He does

for you.

Shortly after I asked Jesus to live in my heart, at

around 14 years old, I was at church while an

evangelist was speaking. For some reason, I

looked over at his wife and thought, I want to be

a preacher’s wife. I admired her! Now, previous to

that, the desire of my heart was to grow up and

become a wife and a mother. Now I wanted so

much to be a preacher’s wife and a mother.

At that time, and throughout high school, I had a

friend who was very annoying and would tease

me to tears. I never would have imagined that he

would become my husband. I had no idea if he

would even have anything to do with becoming a

Christian, let alone preaching the Gospel.

To make a long story short, he called me up about

a year after we graduated and asked if I would

like to be on a children’s ministry team with him.

He had been away at Bible school for a year and

had learned a lot about ministering to kids with

puppets and drama. My first thought was I’ll have

d e - l i g h t 15

to see this to believe it. Well, to my surprise, hewas serious—and the more I was around him, themore I literally fell in love with him. Here was ayoung man who loved God with all of his heart!

The desire the Lord had put in my heart severalyears before began to unfold right before myeyes. Blaine asked me to marry him, and for thelast 25 years I have been so blessed to be at hisside while he’s preached to thousands of children,teenagers, and adults. Not only that, but for thelast 21 years I’ve been busy fulfilling my dream ofbeing a mom to three wonderful sons. I’m sothankful I delighted in the Lord and continue todo so! I know you will be thankful as you delightin the Lord, too!

Remember that God delights in you and is think-ing of you right now.

The Lord your God is with you…He willtake great delight in you, He will quietyou with his love, He will rejoice overyou with signing.

Zephaniah 3:17 NIV

What a wonderful thing to be able to say as ayoung woman, “Imitate me as I imitate Jesus”!Paul was able to say this (1 Cor. 11:1), and weshould all be on our way to saying it, if we can’tsay it yet.

I believe we can admire others. It’s nice to look upto people and think they’re something special,but let’s take it a step further and aspire to be likethose people in our lives whom we admire. I’mnot talking about people who look like they aresuccessful but whose lives are falling apart behindclosed doors. I want you to think about thosepeople in your life who are tried and true. Theyare the real thing. Nobody’s perfect, but it’s goodto admire the people in your life who genuinelyshow the love of God to others.

22 Every Teen Girl’s Little Pink Book

Because we’re talking about God’s daughters, I

want you to think of older women you want to belike. (I know you can think of at least one.) It

might be your very own mom, a big sister, anaunt, a teacher, a pastor’s wife, or a friend. There

a re people in our lives who challenge us to gro wup, to do better and try hard e r, to be more disci-

plined, to love more, to smile, to love ourselves,to help others, to be more like Jesus. Just being

a round them, we know they have spent time withthe Lord. They share His joy and compassion. If

you don’t know someone like that, I pray rightnow for God to put a godly woman like that in

your life. I believe that you’ll know the blessing of

this kind of relationship very soon, because it isso import a n t .

It’s also important that you be someone others

look up to. Your example (good or bad) will speaklouder than anything you say. You need to be that

person whom others look up to when they aredown. Be the girl at school, church, or even the

mall who inspires some little girl to say to herself,

“I want to be just like her.” It will thrill your heartto hear someone say, “I’ve been watching you,

a s - p i r e 23

and there is something you have that I don’t.

What is it?” Guess what? You are a witness of thelove of Christ. You are an ambassador. You are

God’s daughter—a daughter of not just a king but

of the King of kings.

Being a Christian is not always easy. You will

sometimes have to make choices that are oppo-site of the average teenager’s. However, may I

remind you, you are not average! Every time youchoose to obey God’s Word (your Father’s letters

to you), He will give you strength to conquer

temptations. Others will be watching you,longing for the stability, wisdom, and strength

that you demonstrate as God’s daughter.

Remember: Aspire to be like someone great, and

be someone others aspire to be!

Psalm 3:2-4 brings so much comfort to me. I prayas you read it, you’ll understand how much yourheavenly Father wants for you to walk upright,knowing you are right with Him.

Many are saying of me “There is no helpfor him in God.” But You, O Lord, are acovering around me, my shining-greatness, and the One Who lifts myhead. I was crying to the Lord with myvoice. And He answered me from Hisholy mountain.

Psalm 3:2-4 NLV

His Word says that if we confess our sins He is

faithful and just to forgive us and make our lives

clean. (1 John 1:9.)

Psalm 51:7 NLT says:

Purify me from my sins, and I will beclean; wash me, and I will be whiterthan snow.

I grew up in western Canada and spent a lot of

time in the mountains. There is nothing like a

fresh snowfall, when everything is completely

covered in at least a foot of snow. It’s so beautiful

and sparkling clean. It just glistens.

When we’ve sinned (and we all know when we

have), it’s absolutely our responsibility as God’s

daughter to ask the Lord to forgive us, to receive

His forgiveness, and in some cases to ask others

to forgive us. When we do, we are just like that

snow—clean and glowing.

Come now, and let us reason together,saith the Lord: though your sins be asscarlet, they shall be as white as snow;


though they be red like crimson, theyshall be as wool.

Isaiah 1:18

One time when I was about 16 and had juststarted driving, some of us were hanging out andtalking in front of a friend’s house. A boy fromschool pulled up, and we were all talking to himat his car. As he was leaving, he backed up to turnaround and backed right into my car. Then he toldme not to tell my dad and mom because hedidn’t have insurance. Because he was a seniorfootball player and I was a little intimidated byhim, I agreed to tell my parents that it must havehappened in the school parking lot and that Ididn’t have a clue who did it.

I went home and proceeded to lie to my parents,but I felt sick. I couldn’t sleep that night, and I wassick to my stomach the next day at school. I lovedmy parents, and I had been a Christian for acouple of years so I knew I had sinned. God’sdaughters don’t lie.

I couldn’t wait to get home from school that dayto tell the truth. On my way, I pulled over in my

u n - a - s h a m e d 31

’66 red Chevy and prayed, “Lord, please forgive

me for lying, and give me the courage and

strength to tell my parents the truth...and don’t

let that boy beat me up.” (He was a big boy—and

not a very nice one.)

When I prayed, I knew I was on the right track but

still had to obey God’s Word and honor my

parents by telling them the truth. I knew there

would be consequences, but I also knew I was

going to be able to hold my head up again.

Doing the right thing and facing the punishment

I would receive was so much better than walking

around ashamed!

If I’d kept the lie going, what kind of a witness

would that have been to the boy and all the other

people who knew I was a Christian—including my

own family, whom I was trying to reach?

Had I ever blown it just because I was afraid of a

middle linebacker! I found out that day that no

matter how much you think you’ve blown it with

God, He is always faithful to His Wo rd. The minute

I told my parents the truth, the words “white as

s n o w,” “clean,” “forgiven,” and “right-standing”


all became more real to me than ever—and I was

relieved! I felt like a new girl.

I still hadn’t faced that boy, but because I had

done what was right, I wasn’t afraid anymore. My

parents forgave me, and the boy had to pay to fix

my car. Thankfully, he didn’t beat me up, but I did

get a few dirty looks from him the rest of the

school year!

Whenever you’ve been shown mercy, it can’t stop

there. The Lord wants you to hold your head up

so you can help others hold their heads up, look

into their eyes, and show them God’s love, His

truth, and His mercy. That’s what it’s all about.

God gave His Son, Jesus, who shed His blood so

you and I can stand forgiven and unashamed

with our head held high, so we can help heal a

h u rting world. I know you want to be that kind of

young woman.

3 things you must tell your parents

Communication is the key to victory in anykind of relationship. Great companies,great armies, great churches, great sportsteams, and great homes all have one thingin common: They have learned to commu-nicate effectively with one another.Communication is not talking. It is listen-ing, observing, studying, and, finally,

talking. People who only learn to talk are notcommunicating; they are spewing. To open upgood communication lines with your parents, thereare 3 things you must always tell them.

1. Tell them when you need help. It may be in school, a relationship, or a job, but ifyou need help and guidance, let your parentsknow. That’s why God gave them to you—to helpyou get through tough times.


2. Tell them when you’ve made a mistake.

It might be easier at the time to try to cover it up,but honesty not only will help you avoid this samemistake in the future; it will also earn you bigpoints in the “trust quest.”

3. Tell them you love and appreciate them.

S u re, there ’s no such thing as a perfect pare n t ,but most have made a very significant invest-ment of time, energ y, and money in their chil-d ren. Regularly let your parents know you lovethem, even if they don’t always show the samelove in re t u rn .

liberal in giving

characterized by anoble or forbear-ing spiritv i i

You’re never too young to be generous. It alwaysmeans so much to me when my sons are gener-ous with a cheerful heart. I just want to do a littlejig. That’s the kind of giving your parents notice.It makes us so grateful—so very grateful!

You’re not too young to give at home. Give toyour brothers and sisters. I’m not talking aboutmoney or gifts. I’m talking about just acknowl-edging them, being thoughtful to listen to them.You may have different interests, so just take alittle time to listen to their hopes and dreams.Pray for them. Be kind to their friends. All thesethings go a long way.

Another place where you’re not too young to giveis in church. Find out where you can serve. Maybeyou can help in the nursery. Maybe you can sing.

gen-er-ous


You might be one of those greeting types. Giving

of your time is so generous.

I also want to talk to you about tithing. I learned

about tithing when I was about 14 years old. I

need to tell you, once you start to tithe, if you

haven’t already, you’re in for the gift that keeps

on giving.

Malachi 3:10 NIV says, “‘Bring the whole tithe into

the storehouse, that there may be food in my

house. Test me in this,’ says the Lord Almighty,

‘and see if I will not open the floodgates of

heaven and pour out so much blessing that you

will not have room enough for it.’”

The tithe is 10 percent of your income, and it’s

important to understand that part of being God’s

daughter is being obedient to His Word. You

might think it sounds a little crazy, but God even

says to test, or prove, Him in this.

All I can say is just do it, and watch how He will

give you wisdom with the rest of your money.

He’ll even give you ideas on how to make

m o n e y. It’s wonderful to know that you are tru s t-

ing God with something you’ve worked hard for,

u n - a - s h a m e d 39

that you’ve given something you put your heart

into. Now, that’s giving. Commit to do this.

You’ll be blessed, and you’ll be a part of bless-

ing your churc h .

Being a generous friend is something God

expects you to be, too. Be the kind of friend that

you want your friends to be to you. Sometimes a

good way to decide how to help your friends is to

put yourself in their shoes. What would it be like

to be in their circumstances? Just ask the Lord to

give you ideas and wisdom.

God wants you to give more than you even want

to, because when you’re generous with your time,

your money, your gifts, and your talents, people

see the love of God that’s been shed abroad in

your heart by the Holy Spirit—and that’s exactly

what it’s there for: to give!

3 ways helping your parents helps you

“What do I get out of this?”

I’m glad you asked. Perhaps you get anallowance that you can point to as some formof payment for your help with the familychores. But maybe not. We’ve never had aregular allowance with any of our teenagers,but they’ve always worked very willingly

because they care about our family and understandthat rewards will come. So here are 3 ways helpingout Mom and Dad will help you even more.

1. Welcome to training camp forlife’s big leagues.

I’m so glad now that my parents instilled great workhabits in me when I was a teenager. They gave meall that I would need to make my bosses happy andget me many raises along the way.

u n - a - s h a m e d 43

2. You are sowing seed that youwill harvest in your own homeone day.

I believe one of the reasons my 3 boys havealways been good workers in our home is that Iwas a good worker in my house. The Bible saysthat God is never mocked and that any time aseed of any kind is sown, you will reap in dueseason. (Gal. 6:7.)

3. Helping Mom and Dad givesyou favor with them.

It won’t be long until you really need somethingfrom your parents. Every willing, well-done workputs another good deposit in your favor accountwith them. Withdrawals are easier when you’veput something in the bank.

Ephesians 6:1 NIV says, “Children (daughters),obey your parents in the Lord, for this is right.Honor your father and mother”—which is the firstcommandment with a promise—“that it may gowell with you and that you may enjoy long life onthe earth.”

I’m sure some of you can quote this Scripturebackwards, forwards, and inside out. But if not, it’snever too late to put this one in your heart. Itreally goes without saying how important it is forus, as God’s daughters and daughters to ourp a rents, to obey this. It is one of the Te nCommandments, so that says something.

The Lord wouldn’t ask us to do this if it weren’tgoing to benefit us, just as the Scripture says.God promises us that if we obey and honor our

hon-or

45h o n - o r

parents, it will go well with us and we’ll enjoy a

long life on the earth. He also wouldn’t ask us to

do this if it weren’t possible.

Notice that the Scripture says, “Obey your

parents in the Lord.” You are not required to obey

any parent or authority figure who tells you to do

something that goes against the Word of God.

Most parents are trying their best. Both my

husband and I grew up with parents who didn’t

know the Lord. If you’re in the same situation,

then you have a perfect opportunity to show the

love of God. Honoring them is the best way.

If you don’t have Christian parents, please know

that even the strongest of Christian families have

struggles. As a mom of three great and good

boys, I’ve messed up so many times. I thank God

for His mercy and for the forgiveness and under-

standing of my kids. Please tell me you’ll forgive

your parents, and don’t ever give up on them!

Speak well of them, pray for them, and show

them respect.

Offer the same honor to the other authority

figures in your life as well, such as grandparents,


pastors, teachers, and coaches. Tell these people

you appreciate them.

Tell your dad and mom you love them. I don’t

think you can ever tell your family you love them

too much. Your family might not be really affec-

tionate, but you can get the ball rolling. Pass out

some hugs once in a while.

Show your dad and mom you love them by

helping out. Whatever God has asked you to do,

He has without a doubt given you the ability to

do it. He wouldn’t ask us to obey our parents if He

didn’t think we were capable. Ask the Lord to

help you. Ask Him to show you His heart towards

your dad and mom. Shock them. Go for it. Clean

that room. Empty that dishwasher. Go the extra

mile! It’s the little things that will bless their socks

off, and you’ll feel pretty good about yourself too.

And the Lord will say, “That’s My daughter!”

We need to do our best to be Christ-like at home.

Your dad, mom, brothers, sisters—and pets,

too—need to know that God loves them. The

Bible says that as Jesus is, so are we to this world.

His love and kindness flow through us.

h o n - o r 47

It’s been said that who you are at home is the real

you! That’s a thought. Let the Lord help you be

His ambassador in your home by honoring yourparents. You can do all things through Christ who

gives you strength!

The Bible tells us that a wise child will makeher father happy, but a foolish child will causeher mother grief. (Prov. 10:1.) The attitudesand actions you display in your home canhave a major influence on the happiness ofyour family.

Here are 7 things you can do to bring joy inyour family.

1. Do your chores without someoneasking you to do them.

2. Offer to help with somethingaround the house that is notusually your responsibility.

3. Think of a compliment you cangive your mom or dad, or both.

h o n - o r 51

4. Ask your parents if there isanything you can do to improveyour behavior.

5. When asked to do something,don’t procrastinate even a minute. Go right to it.

6. If you have a brother or sister,treat your sibling with the samerespect that you would want inreturn.

7. Be polite, thoughtful, andhelpful outside of your home: atschool, at church, and in otheractivities.


expressive of thankswell pleased: gladx

The Bible says, “Everytime I think of you, I give thanks to my God” (Phil.1:3 NLT). Even though I might not know you, I trulyam thankful for you. As I prepared to write thesedevotions, I prayed for all the young women whowould read this book. In prayer, I have thankedGod for you, that you are growing closer to yourheavenly Father every day, and that this book willhelp you.

I, myself, don’t have any daughters. I have 3wonderful sons. Some of my dearest friends havedaughters, whom I just love, and I also have 3precious nieces who are very sweet and a lot offun to be around.

I am thankful for all of the women whom God hasblessed my life with. I am so thankful for moms,daughters, sisters, grandmas, aunts, cousins,

nieces, and girlfriends. Without all of us, Godwouldn’t have His daughters, and we wouldn’t

have each other. The world just wouldn’t be thesame without us. God bless His girls!

As we talk about thankfulness, let me ask you aquestion.

Would you rather hang around people who arethankful or unthankful?

Take a moment to think about the times you havebeen around ungrateful, complaining people. It’snot very much fun. What’s really bad is if you’re

one of them!

Have you ever stopped and listened to yourself?

You can’t possibly get away from you. But youcan take a good look at your heart and mind,and you can ask the Lord to help you changeyour attitude.

I think we’ve all been guilty of being unthankfulf rom time to time. I’ve caught myself several

times, just by myself, grumbling to myself. It’sso not beautiful. That’s why the Wo rd of Godsays to not worry about anything but insteadmake our requests known to God. He also says


to give thanks in everything. That doesn’t mean

to thank God for everything bad. It means that

even in unpleasant circumstances, we can still

have a thankful heart because our trust is in a

good Father!

Make up your mind to be a thankful person.

Settle it once and for all. It just has to be done.

Not only will you like being around yourself, but

others will also want to be around you.

This is a good time to bring up manners.

A p p reciation is so much a part of being a godly

young woman. Saying “thank you” to people

means so much. You know, don’t you, how nice it

is to receive a thank-you note? It means a lot to

just be gracious and say “thank you” to your

s e rver or the little gal at the mall who helped

you. You might be that little gal who works at the

mall or restaurant. Oh, how your feet ache and

you just want to go home! It means a lot to you

to hear someone say, “Thank you so much. Have

a nice day.”

Being God’s daughters isn’t about being self-

c e n t e red or just about what God and every o n e

t h a n k - f u l 55

else can do for us. Instead, let’s think about

what God can do through us for others. I guar-

antee you that with that attitude, you won’t be

able to help but be a very thankful, grateful

young woman.

Let’s do it. Let’s be the most thankful girls in town!

I wish I could meet you and give you a big hug

and say, “Thank you for reaching out to others

with a heart full of thanks!”

3 reasons your relationship with yourparents will affect your career

Your relationship with your parents issimply preparation for the rest of your lifeexperiences, including work and care e r.T h e re are at least 3 important reasons whyyour career will either succeed or fail as ad i rect result of how you get along with theauthority in your house.

1. If you can’t honor and obey thosewho love you in your home, it’sunlikely that you’ll behave anybetter with a boss who won’t benearly as likely to forgive. Remember: Your parents will be the lastbosses you have who can’t fire you.

2. Your parents have already beenwhere you are headed. They have experienced the real world. Ifyou’re smart, you’ll ask questions, listen to


their experiences and wisdom, and learnwhat it takes to succeed.

3. There will be times when school,chores, and life at home will seemboring and redundant. The day will come when you will exper-ience the same feelings with your job andcareer. Learning to persevere and rejuve-nate your passion will put you ahead of thepack.


to inspire withcourage, spirit, orh o p e

to spur on: s t i m u l a t ex i i

Being an encourager is a very important job Godhas given us. We can learn everything we need toknow about encouraging others by looking atHim. The Bible says our Father is an encourager:

All praise to the God and Father of ourMaster, Jesus the Messiah! Father of allmercy! God of all healing counsel! Hecomes alongside us when we got h rough hard times, and before youknow it, he brings us alongside someoneelse who is going through hard times sothat we can be there for that person justas God was there for us.

2 Corinthians 1:3,4 MSG

I hope and pray that you’ve known what it’s like tobe encouraged. I pray that as you read these

en-cour-age

61e n - c o u r - a g e

devotions you know more than ever how greatyou are and how precious you are to God. We all

need to hear that!

Some people are just naturally very comfortableat encouraging others, while some have to work alittle harder at it. Let me take just a moment toencourage you right now that you can do it! Youcan cheer people on.

The Bible says, “A word aptly spoken is likeapples of gold in settings of silver” (Prov. 25:11

NIV). Another version of this Scripture says, “Theright word at the right time is like a custom-madepiece of jewelry” (MSG). Take your pick: goldapples or lovely jewelry. Both sound good to me!

Just remember: The Lord is counting on us tospeak good, kind, uplifting, helpful, comfortingwords to people; words that bring hope and faith.

Our words can change someone’s life.

God’s Word also says, “Words kill, words give life;they’re either poison or fruit—you choose” (Prov.18:21 MSG).

Besides speaking kind words, there are otherways to encourage people.


Words can be put on a little note. I have received

notes that I’ve read over and over. It might have

taken that person 2 minutes to write it, but it will

help me for a lifetime.

A smile goes a long, long way.

A compliment does too!

A little gift lets a person know you’re thinking of

them and that you and God love them and care!

(It doesn’t have to be expensive. Maybe it could

be a little candle or a tiny picture frame.)

Tell someone you’ll pray for them. Now, remem-

ber: You mean business. If you say you’re going

to pray, then pray! A good idea, if possible, is to

pray for them right then and there!

Make a phone call. As you’re going through your

day, a person may come to mind not just once but

several times. Sometimes you need to stop and

pray for them. Often you could just give them a

quick phone call and say, “I’ve just been thinking

about you. Is there anything I can do for you?”

A quick little e-mail can encourage someone too.

The e-mails I send have to be quick because my

e n - c o u r - a g e 63

typing isn’t that great. “Short and sweet” is agood e-mail motto.

These are all ways that our Father can use us to

encourage others.

Now, how can you get encouraged?

Well, I believe God will speak to others to encour-

age you, but the very best way is to try to re m e m-ber to go to Him first. He’s your Father. He knowsyou better than you know yourself and knowsexactly what you need. He can encourage you likeno one else. I love the saying “Go to the thro n e

( G o d ’s throne) before you go to the phone.”

As God’s daughter, you are privileged to enter

into His throne room. When you’re discouraged,it takes faith to enter His gates with thanksgivingand His courts with praise. You might not feel likeit, and that’s why I say it takes faith. Get your Bibleout, and read some psalms out loud. Faith comes

from hearing the Word of God. Sometimes wejust gotta do it!

When you’re discouraged, that’s the time to runto your heavenly Father. Don’t run away. His loveand His Word never fail. Hope and faith will begin


to rise up in you. Trust in the Lord with all your

heart; don’t lean on your own understanding. In

all your ways acknowledge Him, and He will direct

your path. He’ll show you steps to take.

We can learn to encourage ourselves in the Lord!

Let me tell you, that’s a true sign of growing up!

Don’t you worry. If you’ve asked the Lord to help

you, help is on its way. Don’t limit Him! Nothing

can stop His love from getting to you. (Rom. 8:38-

40.) He wants His daughter encouraged and

equipped and strong so you don’t miss out on the

wonderful plans He has for you. I’m so excited for

you! God bless you, you daughter of the Most

High God!

Think about someone you wouldlike to encourage. Write them a

note, and let them know what theymean to you. Remind them of howmuch God loves them and you love

them. It only takes a minute, but it can make someone’s day—

even change their life.

encourager

Let no corrupt word proceed out ofyour mouth, but what is good forn e c e s s a ry edification, that it mayimpart grace to the hearers.

Ephesians 4:29 NKJV

A little girl came home from a tough day at schooland collapsed onto the sofa in her living room. Shesighed to herself out loud: “Nobody loves me. Thewhole world hates me!” Her little brother, who wasin the room playing video games, responded,“That’s not true, Sis. Some people don’t evenknow you.”

He’d had a great opportunity to give some encour-aging words to his sister, but instead he’d onlyadded to her frustrations.

If you want people to seek you out as a friend, thenbe an encourager. It takes a great person to seepast people’s shortcomings to find the good thingsand praise them.

In the introduction of this little book we talkedabout many different hats we wear as God’sdaughters: daughters to our heavenly Father,daughters to our earthly parents, sisters, grand-daughters, nieces, cousins, friends, best friends,students, and the list goes on.

First things first: Our #1 relationship is with ourheavenly Father.

One thing God gave us when He made us was alonging to be loved. Did you know there is notone single person in the whole world who cancompletely fill that longing in your heart? We alldo depend on others to fill that longing andhunger in our hearts. But nobody on earth can doit for you: not your family, not your friends, notthat prince charming you dream of one day

marrying—nope, not even him. And guess what.You will do your best to love your husband andthe children God blesses you with, but we all fallshort. That’s why your first love should be to theLord. His love never fails, and His love also helpscover our failures.

God first loved us. He chose us to receive Hissalvation. When we receive that love, we becomeHis daughters. I’ll never forget the first time Iknew that God loved me.

I was sitting in my room thinking about how manytimes I had disappointed my dad and mom. I wasabout 13 or 14 (I wish I had written down thedate), and I was with my friends, drinking,smoking, and probably cussing. (It wasn’t the firsttime.) My parents didn’t know what I’d been upto, and for some reason (maybe someone waspraying) I felt worse than I’d ever felt aboutmyself. I wanted to change so bad but didn’tknow how. I had been to Sunday school when Iwas little and sometimes went to churc hChristmas Eve and Easter Sunday, and I had seenBilly Graham on TV. I was very conscious of Godand believed in Him.


I knew there was a Bible on the bookshelf in ourfamily room that my Uncle Freddie and AuntieRuby had given my dad and mom a couple yearsprior. I got that precious Bible, sat on my bed,and read Scriptures about God’s love until about4 A.M. There was a section in the front of this Biblethat told how to become a born-again Christian. Iread and read—and read some more. I cried, andcried some more—first tears of sorrow and then,for an even longer time, tears of joy (real, truejoy). I felt so clean and so pure—so forgiven.

From that day forward until this day, no one—notanyone—can ever take away that knowledge ofGod’s love. I knew that I knew that I knew Heloved me, and for the first time I had an under-standing of what Jesus had done for me. (Rom.8:15,16.) That night changed my life forever.

Receiving God’s love comes by reading andhearing God’s Wo rd (His love letters to Hisdaughters) and by prayer (talking to Him andlistening to Him). Reading the Word, hearing theWord at church, and praying are things you cando to grow in faith and in the knowledge of God’sabsolute love for you.

r e - l a - t i o n - s h i p 71

When we make Jesus the Lord of our lives, we are

adopted into God’s family. He really is our Father.

When we are born again, God’s Spirit (the Holy

Spirit) touches our spirit and tells us who we are

and whom we belong to. You are God’s daughter.

As you gain understanding of that acceptance

and love, you will bless others.

Remember: As a daughter, sister, friend, grand-

daughter, cousin, niece, auntie, wife, mother,

grandmother—all you’ve been called to be in all

of your relationships—you will flourish because

you, my dear friend, have made the choice to

receive the love of God through His Son Jesus.

Therefore, you have something so amazing to

give: You’ll give His best. As God’s daughter, you

are blessed to be a blessing!

4 ways to tell parents “thank you”

As you grow in your relationships, I believeone of the greatest character traits that youcan develop in your life is appreciation andgratefulness towards others. It’s importantthat you find practical ways to show gratitudeto someone who has been a blessing to you.Nothing warms my heart more as a mom thanwhen one of my boys takes the time to tellme and their dad “thanks” for somethingwe’ve done for them. Here are some waysyou can say “thanks.”

1. A card. Take the time to write out your feelings towardsyour parents, accounting for the specific thingsthey’ve done that you are grateful for.

2. A gift. It doesn’t have to be expensive. Maybe it’s a giftcertificate to their favorite restaurant or store. Asmall sacrifice of finances on your part communi-cates a big message to Mom and Dad.

r e - l a - t i o n - s h i p 75

3. Unexpected work. Do something around the house you weren’tasked to do: the trash, the dishes, the yard—whatever. Tell them you just wanted to find a wayto say thanks.

4. Go ahead and tell them. Say it out loud, and say it whenever they’ve donesomething good for you: a good meal, permis-sion to use the car, a night at the movies—what-ever it might be. Tell them, “Thanks!”


Dear _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ ,(your name here )

Before I shaped you inthe womb, I knew allabout you. I know whenyou leave and when you

get back. You’re never out of My sight. I know youinside and out. I know every bone in your body. Iknow exactly how you were made, bit by bit; howyou were sculpted from nothing into something.Like an open book, you grew from conception tobirth before Me. All the stages of your life werespread out before Me. The days of your life wereall prepared before you’d even lived one day.(Jer. 1:5; Ps. 139:3,15,16.)

I created you in My own image, to reflect Myn a t u re. I paid greater attention to you than toany of My creation, down to the last detail—even numbering the hairs on your head! You areMy masterpiece. I have created you anew inChrist Jesus, so that you can do the good thingsI planned for you long ago. I have lavished aF a t h e r’s love upon you, just because you are My

child! I want you to clearly know the plans I havefor you. My plan is to prosper you; never toh a rm you, but to give you hope and a future .(Gen. 1:27; Matt. 10:30; Eph. 2:10; 1 John 3:1;J e r. 29:11.)

Every gift I give you will be good and perfect. Iwill never change My mind about My desire tohelp you. If you will simply delight yourself in Me,I will give you the desires and secret petitions ofyour heart. Call to Me, and I will always answeryou. In fact, I’ll tell you marvelous and wondrousthings that you could never figure out on yourown. Remember: I can do anything—far morethan you could ever imagine or guess or requestin your wildest dreams! I do it by working withinyou. (James 1:17; Ps. 37:4; Jer. 33:3; Eph. 3:20.)

If your heart is broken, I’ll be right there. I’ll saveyou when you are crushed in your spirit. I will carefor you like a Shepherd. You are a lamb in Myarms, held close to My heart. I’ll wipe every tearfrom your eyes. If you ever doubt My love,remember that I loved you so much that I gavethe only Son I had, Jesus, to lay down His life, justso you could live with Me forever. I hope you are


absolutely convinced that absolutely nothing—nothing living or dead, angelic or demonic, todayor tomorrow, high or low, thinkable or unthink -able—can get between you and My love,because of what Jesus did for you. And one day Ilook forward to seeing you face to face: tearsgone, crying gone, pain gone. Remember that I

am coming soon, so keep living by all the wordsyou find in My book. (Ps. 34:18; Isa. 40:11; Rev.21:4; John 3:16; Rom. 8:38,39; Rev. 21:4,7.)

prayer of salvation

God loves you—no matter who you are, no matter what

your past. God loves you so much that He gave His one

and only begotten Son for you. The Bible tells us that

“...whoever believes in him shall not perish but have

eternal life” (John 3:16 NIV). Jesus laid down His life and

rose again so that we could spend eternity with Him in

heaven and experience His absolute best on earth. If

you would like to receive Jesus into your life, say the

following prayer out loud and mean it from your heart.

Heavenly Father, I come to You admitting that

I am a sinner. Right now, I choose to turn away

from sin, and I ask You to cleanse me of all

unrighteousness. I believe that Your Son,

Jesus, died on the cross to take away my sins.

I also believe that He rose again from the

dead so that I might be forgiven of my sins

and made righteous through faith in Him. I

call upon the name of Jesus Christ to be the

Savior and Lord of my life. Jesus, I choose to

follow You and ask that You fill me with the

power of the Holy Spirit. I declare that right

now I am a child of God. I am free from sin

and full of the righteousness of God. I am

saved in Jesus’ name. Amen.

Savior for the first time, please contact us on the Web at
